I seem to unwilling to follow the leader so my September Blog post is about using 1" thick foam for risers and sub-roadbed. Take a look and comment good, bad, and why. Rail Roadrunners of Yuma

Things are slow during the summer here in Yuma, AZ.

Armchair   aka   Glen Wasson  

The Armchair just got a turbo.  Procrastination be damned, full speed ahead!  Here in Yuma, Arizona, summer is when we don't get out too much and I am excited to announce a new endeavor for me, producing on-line model kits with complete step by step instructions using full size templates to fabricate required details.  I will be needing some Beta test builders in the next weeks so keep an eye on the blog for frequent updates.

In the April issue of MRH mag some writers panned my area of comfort and expertise, Armchair Modeling.  I have been doing it for many years and blogging about it for the last 2 years or so.  There is also another down under.

Yuma, Arizona, is about 200 miles from hobby shops in Phoenix, Tucson or San Diego and has dropped from it's winter high of 150,000 population to the summer (year round) hardy souls of about 80,000.  Our little club, Rail Roadrunners of Yuma, is down to Marvin and me after having our 2 regular snowbirds, Ron R. and Bobber Gibbs of On30 Conspiracy bail after the first 100 degree day.  Come November we hope to draw a few more birds.

For those that know Bobber Gibbs of On30 Consperacy, he dropped by our Saturday meeting and I got out my On30 train to run on the upper loop of our 5'x10' club layout.

I got a new site   http://armchairmodelbuilders101.com   and it links to the old sites so drop by and say hi!
